best hockey role seen tried
Every role we've tried him out in, he's excelled. He's just playing, by far, the best hockey I've seen him play.
embraces might role successful
It might not be the role he envisions. But the more he embraces this role, the more successful he's going to be.
motivate role
I don't think he ever showed what he can do on the ice. Part of that is our fault. We didn't put him into the right role and motivate him the right way to get him to play his best. That's the frustrating part.
body front hard seen shooting stick team ton worked
They worked to get into those shooting lanes, they worked to get a body part or a stick in front of the shots. It's how they've had success. They have a ton of skill, but they also work as hard as any team we've seen this year.
crazy easy experience great happens hat help hockey matter opportunity playing tip
It was a crazy day. I tip my hat to the players. It isn't easy playing in that environment. ... It's a great opportunity for me. The experience I'm going to go through here no matter what happens will help me in my hockey career.
believe believing difference good looked saw start team
It looked like what we pictured from this team at the start of the season. The difference is believing in ourselves. We saw a lot of good signs.

At this time of year, it's totally unacceptable to get outworked. I thought that's what happened, especially the first 20 minutes.

That's exactly who we didn't want to have carry it down the ice on a 2-on-1.
dangerous hockey line mesh speed together type
That's a lot of skill, a lot of speed and a lot of hockey smarts all on one line. They mesh pretty well together and they're the type of line that should be dangerous every night.
eyes opened
Around the league, we've opened some eyes with what we've done.
bit point team teams
We feel we can do it. We feel that we've got a lot of firepower on this team and teams can underestimate us at this point . . . We've all got a little bit to prove.
compete hard ready seemed surprise
We seemed tentative. It did surprise me. I thought we were ready to go. We didn't compete as hard as we should have.
rewarded
We wanted to come out skating. We did, but didn't get rewarded for it. We generated a lot of chances, but just didn't put them in the net.
games win
We feel like we probably have to get to the 90s. But we can't win 10 out of 12 games in one night.
